| 1 | + | Pokemon Stadium 2 - Little Cups - Transfers ONLY from new game FAQ: |
| 2 | ||
| 3 | Q: What is this run? | |
| 4 | - | A: Basically, only use transfers to beat the Pika Cup, while starting from a new file of RBY. So you have to play through the game and build a team to the point you then beat the Pika Cups. |
| 4 | + | A: Basically, only use transfers to beat the Little Cups, while starting from a new file of Crystal. So you have to play through the game and build a team to the point you then beat the Little Cups. |
| 5 | ||
| 6 | The reason it is transfers only, is because otherwise the fastest method would be to to just use Rentals to avoid the team building altogether. | |
| 7 | ||
| 8 | - | Run is also glitchless, as again with glitches you can very easily turn this into being completely uninteresting very quickly. |
| 8 | + | Q: How are you going so fast in Crystal?? |
| 9 | A: That's the Dodrio Tower, a mode in Stadium that lets you play GSC at 3x speed, as long as it's connected with a transfer pak. | |
| 10 | - | Q: How are you going so fast in Blue?? |
| 10 | + | |
| 11 | - | A: That's the Dodrio Tower, a mode in Stadium that lets you play RBY at 4x speed, as long as it's connected with a transfer pak. |
| 11 | + | Q: Is Pokemon Stadium 2 from a new save file as well? |
| 12 | A: No, otherwise you couldn't do both the Little Cups without all the other stuff. | |
| 13 | - | Q: Is Pokemon Stadium from a new save file as well? |
| 13 | + | |
| 14 | - | A: No, otherwise you couldn't do both the Pika Cups without all the other stuff. |
| 14 | + | |
| 15 | A: No, because grinding to L100 for Prime Cup would be insanely boring and not fun. | |
| 16 | ||
| 17 | - | A: No, because grinding to L100 from Prime Cup would be insanely boring and not fun. |
| 17 | + | |
| 18 | A: Yes, I plan on doing Petit Cups too, I've already done Pika Cup, and might do some GLC stuff in both Stadium games. Can also do stuff in Stadium 2 in both Gen 1 and 2. | |
| 19 | ||
| 20 | - | A: Yes, I plan on doing Petit Cups too, as well as Little Cups in Stadium 2. Might also do GLC, we'll see. |
| 20 | + | |
| 21 | A: Basically trying to make a team as early as possible that can win, which I think will be by the end of Rocket HQ. There's tons of stuff in there that's insanely helpful, including the Theif TM, and boomers. | |
| 22 | ||
| 23 | - | A: Basically, get a L20 Starmie and Nidoking and power through with them. Nidoking is pretty much just for Mr Fix, otherwise it's the Starmie show. |
| 23 | + | So the idea is to get a team of Level 5s with a couple of boomers, and use Abra to clean. |
| 24 | ||
| 25 | - | Support will be a L15 Cloyster that can explode, and otherwise fodder. I considered getting a L15 Clefable as well, but I'll probably forgo it for now to see if I can win without it. |
| 25 | + | So Koffing and Geodude will be bred down Self-destruct, Abra will get the Elemental punches and Theif (Psychic isn't until Kanto), And then other support will be Rattata with max power Frustration, and Poliwag with Surf. |
| 26 | ||
| 27 | - | Because I want a Nidoking, I'll actually play on Blue, because it can buy a L17 Nidorino at the Game Corner. This means I'll play through the game with Squirtle, because getting Nidoran Males at the start of Blue is really rare, and no manips on Dodrio Tower. This kinda works out anyway, because Squirtle doesn't need early candies like Nidoking does for Misty, so I can save them for Staryu. |
| 27 | + | The 6th option will just be Togepi Egg filler. |
| 28 | ||
| 29 | Q: What about the Odd Egg?? | |
| 30 | A: Yeah I thought about this, but it's too unreliable. If you got Elekid/Magby they could do good work with the Ele punches, but it's not that common. So I'd rather try to win with Abra first, and just use Togepi so the team is consistent. | |
| 31 | ||
| 32 | Q: Why Crystal over Gold/Silver? | |
| 33 | A: Originally I was thinking about using the Odd Egg, which is Crystal exclusive. Low level Poliwag in the wild is still only in Crystal, so the team is easier to make in that regard, but this would definitely be doable in Gold/Silver as well. | |
| 34 | ||
| 35 | Q: Do you know if this will work? | |
| 36 | A: Nope, just mapped out a general idea purely based on theory, I've done no testing at all. Given the nature of this run using multiple games and a transfer pak, the way to test this is with a run |
